Let me start by saying the following:
1 – YES, I am going to the Dr.
2 – YES, I know I can "google" this info, but I would like to hear personal experiences…

I had an IVP yesterday and they found multiples stones in my kidneys and bladder, and one lodged in my left ureter (never even heard of that part before, I guess it’s between the kidney & bladder). I am a 26 year old female with a 7 month old. I am hoping there are treatment options that will not prevent me from being able to breastfeed. I’ve even been avoiding pain meds!! Anyways, I go for the follow-up appt. and my "official" results tomorrow with my urologist.

I’m just curious –
1 – What procedure did you use/get to get rid of the stones?
2 – Was the procedure painful?
3 – What was the recovery time?
4 – Have the stones come back? If so, how long after?
5 – Did you figure out the cause of the stones? If so, what?

Thanks for any info you have :)
Kat – Thanks! When the tech told me what the films showed, I said "alright, that’s good", she looked all confused, I said "well, NOW we know what the problem is!" I’m just ready to get it fixed now :)
